crackerjazz Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Hi Periklis, looking great! Thanks for sharing - learning a lot from vids like these! I've seen your painfully-detailed A-7 build, by the way -- unbelievable scratchbuilding, sir! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We close the two fuselages together and we sand the joints and rescribe any lost detail. Finally, we glued together the nose cone so everything is ready for final assembly in Part 4.

agelos2005 Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Part 8 of the step by step build of Trumpeter’s 1/48 Mig-27M Flogger J is now on my YouTube channel In Part 8 of the step by step build of Trumpeter’s 1/48 Mig-27M Flogger J we proceed with the weathering. The intention was to present a plane that saw a lot of action during the Afghanistan war. IMG_3579 by periklis_sale, on Flickr IMG_3583 by periklis_sale, on Flickr The weathering took place in three steps: Step 1: Chipping. With a small brush and lighter paint shade than the base one we applied small chips on the edges of selected panels Step 2: Wash. Application of Flory was to blend all previous steps together. Step 3: Fade base color. With oil colours of ochre and white we faded the forward edges of selected panels Step 4: Oil filters.

Sebastijan Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Very nice models so far. I have one question, though. Do you have any reference photos of those MiGs? Stars and Bort numbers normally fade slower than the camouflage. MiG-27Ms arrived to Afghanistan rather new, as well, so fading would be really uncommon. This question is not meant to be a critique, but I just wonder as it happened recently with the Su-27SM in the 2-tone blue camo from Lipetsk, where the exact same insignia faded really quick. I haven't seen anything like it on 23/27s from Afghanistan, yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

modelingbob Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Thank you for posting this very informative build video series. I especially like your weathering techniques that you used with artists oils. Perhaps in future videos you could spend a little more time showing them in a bit more detail. I have this kit in my stash and I'm gonna be building it soon! Please keep the video's coming! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
